Wash your mouth out with soap please!  I introduced chain speed because the OP stated that 'The chain speed is slow' with regard to the DeWalt he has just bought.

 

 

 

I put a separate comment about einhell and the guts of a dewalt saw. You made a valid point on speed though thanks les

My little DeWalt arrived yesterday. First impression is that it's definitely a plastic powertool, feels well made enough for what it is but very, very different to a proper saw. The chain speed is slow, which does make it a bit bouncy if you don't have the body placed up against the work. It's very quiet and light. 
 
If you get one expecting it to be comparable to a small petrol saw for tree jobs, you'll probably be disappointed. 
But for mixed use cutting sleepers, fence rails, the odd tree limb, etc. then it's a more convenient option than a petrol saw and more powerful/capable than a recip. And very much cheaper than a "proper" battery saw.

Dewalt quote as chain speed is below 8m/s no tickets are needed to buy it as it’s a top handle arborists saw. Can’t see an arborists using it though too slow with plastic dogs. Ok for general use though.
